There’s only one way to perk yourself up on Blue Monday as far as we are concerned.

Book flights!

Aer Lingus has just announced a one day Flash Sale with amazing bargains to the US.

They’ve released their lowest-ever fares to the U.S. West Coast – with flights from Dublin to Los Angeles from an incredible €179 and from Dublin to San Francisco from just €219.

You’ll have to be fast though as the fares are only available online until midnight Wednesday, January 17 for travel between February 1 and March 18.

LA could the escape from winter you are dreaming of with average highs of 20C in February. And if you are into star-gazing, don’t forget the 90th Academy Awards are taking place at the Dolby Theatre on March 4. Be there to witness the Oscar frenzy firsthand!

San Francisco is another sunny spot for a break from the chill of Ireland. Celebrate Chinese New Year in one of the biggest China Town’s in the world in SF city centre. Or spend your days exploring Sanoma County and Napa Valley.
